Knew this was coming. Everyone involved in hiring him should be fired or not be involved in hiring the new coach. This cost them a fortune. They still owe him about $18 million and they had to pay Oregon $3 million to get him. I think someone else needs to be responsible also. What a disaster. Word is that had to hit the big football donors for donations to get the money to fire him.

These buyouts are insane. If they had to reach deep into those boosters pockets then they'll be heavily involved in the hiring process I assume.

Just talked with Bob Stoops. Any reports that he?s a candidate for the FSU job are not accurate. Said ?he?s not a candidate?. @CollegeGameDay @espn

Florida State hires search firm


Coburn said Monday that a search firm would assist the school with its coaching hire. FSU confirmed that Tuesday in a press release that stated it has contracted the DHR International search firm, led by Glenn Sugiyama. Most recently, Sugiyama was involved in coaching searches at Utah State and Arizona that yielded Gary Andersen and Kevin Sumlin, respectively.
?We are confident that DHR will be a valuable partner in assisting us with identifying the candidates who best match our priorities for a head coach,? Coburn said. ?Glenn is a highly respected professional in the industry who will spearhead the effort for DHR. He shares our expectation that we will attract the coach to lead our program back among the nation?s elite.?
Coburn said Monday that university boosters will also play a role in the hiring process. Earlier this year, Florida State?s athletic department had a restructuring that brought the Seminole Boosters more prominently into the fold, creating the Florida State University Athletic Association. The boosters raised in the range of $20 million to move on from Taggart, so their involvement was a given for this coaching search. How they will coexist with a search firm, however, is anybody?s guess.

Would love to be in the room with the boosters, FSU brass and the search firm. Now that would make a great HBO Special! This should be an interesting story to watch unfold.
